Hey guys,
We've started developing plugin for Chrome & Firefox that will highlight bitcoin address on the page.
How do you make sure it's a bitcoin address only? Could be any string 16 characters or a multi si address ? Have you tested it out on these use cases? Btw,do you think people will really trust a 3rd party bitcoin related app as their browser extension ?
If you point at it, addon will ask for the amount of bitcoins, that you need to spend to buy smth. and will automatically calculate amount of USD that is needed to be paid for the goods. If you are agree, you ll be forwarded to a payment page, where amount and bitcoin wallet address are already entered. So you won't even need to create a bitcoin wallet to make purchases over the internet with bitcoins.
What do think about it and what other features could be implemented within such an addon?
Honestly,having a hard time understanding the concept.What if I'm on a page like bitcointalk where all the pages have bitcoin addresses ? I'm not here to buy anything simply pointing at the address would be useless for your app.In case I'm willing to buy something,you said I will be redirected to a payment page,what page is this ? Who made it ? How will I store bitcoins on that page ? Am I missing something ?
